When her baby was about 3 months old, she started losing her hair as well and she started getting very nervous. However her baby is now 8 months old and has a full head of hair.

I think I read somewhere that if you don't develop Alopecia till your an adult its less likely to be genetic. I don't remember if they…</p>

Thank you wise 1 for your response. I'm trying to remain calm and stay in the moment. My baby is wonderful and I do hate that I distract myself from enjoying her with my worry. Please if others have input I'd love to hear from you.
